Chapter 7: A Plan - My K-Pop Experience

I had a plan.

I wanted to share my experience to people and perhaps get to know if they had gone through some of the struggles I had faced. But I was not sure how to start, where to go and ultimately if it was something God would be ok with.

I remembered reading something in the Bible about people casting lots to know God’s will in a given situation.

Umm...” Why not” I thought.

I was convinced God could do the same today if He wanted to.

So, I took three post-it and wrote on each one of them: Write a letter, Make a video, Create a website.

I rolled them over and went to our storage room.

“Where should I put them?”

There was a bed with desk drawers and books piled up on top of it.

My choice was made.

I placed the papers in a gap in between the drawers on the bed then closed the door behind me.

I prayed.

“Dear God, I have this idea, but I am not sure where to start. I need some help. Please, send your angel to touch the papers so I could take the right one. Thank you. In Jesus’ Name. Amen”

Countdown: 30 Minutes.

I thought 30 minutes would be more than enough for the angel to complete its mission.

So, I kept myself busy.

When my alarm went off, I ran-walked towards the storage room, put my hand on the door’s handle, said a quick prayer “Thank you, Jesus. Amen” and opened the door.

The next thing I remember was crying...

Make a Video

I did not like what I read on the paper. Why a video? What experience do I have?

I really complained to God for the next 5 minutes. Yet, I was the one who made those papers...

Upset I said “It could be a mistake. Maybe the next one is the one”.

So, I stretched out my hand to take the next post-it and nothing...My hand found nothing.

Strange.

I took my flashlight and looked in the gap.

The two remaining post-it were like 30 cm away from where I had put them. Perfectly aligned next to one another in the corner of one of the drawers...

“Um...ok” I said.

I quickly forgot about this experience and of the plan I had. Until BTS released a song the following month.

Looking back, I find it interesting that the three post-it came to pass.

Note: I do not recommend making decisions the way I did. I believe God worked with the understanding and faith I had at the time.
